Hope this is an acceptable topic for City-Data. If not, someone let me know and I'll pull it. I don't do Facebook.
I am looking for a math tutor for my son who will be in 9th grade Algebra I next year (homeschool). Math is by far his weakest subject, and I have reviewed a sample Algebra I text, that stuff is pretty dense and complicated. I would much prefer to take him to the tutor's residence or office (if they have one of those), I am thinking of twice a week, with my son doing homework in math the other days.
We did Sylvan back a few years ago (4th grade), and they were very good, they brought him right up to speed, but they were very expensive. I haven't been able to find out much about Kumon. Are there any other math tutoring companies, or even private individuals who do this? I would be looking to pay no more than $40-$50 per week. I realize that might be a naive figure to shoot for ---Sylvan was several times more expensive --- but I'm aiming for that sweet spot between affordability and academic competence.
I don't wish to invade anyone's privacy, or appear to be creating an opportunity to "advertise" (however inadvertent that might be), so private messages to me, would probably be preferable.
